Astronaut Bard Review

The Astronaut series of skins just won’t let me down! If so do you, then you’ve come to the right link, as our review today is one of the representatives of this space series – Astronaut Bard. Greetings to every League of Legends player reading this blog, and I will proceed with my review!

Lore

Again, just like with every other Astronaut’s skin I can’t recall any “official” lore, but knowing Bard I can assume that this quest for the eternal and beautiful has long since crossed the borders of Rift and went in search of truth in outer space.

Or maybe he got so fed up with the meeps that he thought that in space they wouldn’t annoy him with their whispering and would allow him to think quietly about the universe’s energy that surrounds us. We’re left to wonder, but that’s why such themed skins are created, immersing you in a process of fantasy, where everyone will see something different.

Overview

Concept and Inspiration

This skin was released on May 28, 2020. A coffee cup, a great tree, Bard Bard, and in whatever image Bard appeared to us, but the designers of the Riot Games studio decided to go even further and transformed him into an astronaut. If you ask me who Bard is I’d be hesitant to tell you and I guess that’s the main reason for all these transformations, he’s good for anything! The cherry on the cake was a UFO for teleport and meeps, in the form of funny aliens.

Design, Sound Effects, and Animations

The appearance is almost the same as that of the other Astronaut skins. Astronaut Bard is dressed in the already classic for this series spacesuit, and his companion spirits have been transformed into small aliens. Recall animation and everything else has been completely redesigned.

Unique Features

Below we would like to briefly describe all the important points, which appeared in the Astronaut Bard and distinguish it from the classic image:

Completely changed appearance, now you are no longer a Bard surrounded by spirits, but an astronaut surrounded by small and cute alien invaders.
You will now be returned to base via Recall by a UFO, and the Bard’s tool has been replaced with the most technologically advanced device.
Bard’s Cosmic Binding (Q) skill now releases green light spheres.
All other animations are made in space style.

Reviews of gamers

After studying the opinions of the gaming community, I came to the conclusion that the entire Astronaut line of skins are liked by players. Below are a few comments about Astronaut Bard:

“Bard, who plays on it now? In such a good pack, they could have picked up another champion. Yasuo?”.- Summoner A
“Cool skin, finally something playable came out on Bard.” – Summoner B
“Meeps – that’s the only reason I play this skin.” – Summoner C

My Review

I don’t play matches on Bard, but I’ve seen absolutely every skin available for it personally and I can assure you – this is the best skin on this champion! You can buy it right away and save a lot of Riot Points, because Astronaut Bard and the classic Bard looks are all you need for aesthetic enjoyment when playing this champion.

Conclusion and Rating

In conclusion, I like this series of skins and Astronaut Bard is no exception. Sometimes I get the impression that they could have picked better champions for it. I’m well aware of the fact that the Astronaut series is more about fun, but I’d be much more interested to see the Astronaut as some sort of Garen with, say, a rocket instead of a sword, hilarious! It is not a bad skin on the whole and a very good skin for this champion, so I will give it a score of 8.5 out of 10 if compared to all the other skins on the Bard. Highly recommended for purchase!
